The Lions Strip Sack That Bought Sheppard Another Week in Carolina - EP 054

The Lions beat the Jets 31–24 and sit at 2–1. The offense has scored 31 in each of its first three games, and Jahmyr Gibbs was the engine again with three touchdowns. Still, Geno Smith completed 31 of 37 for 321 yards against a secondary that has been reshuffled and re-reshuffled. In this live episode, we go through the Jets film for context only. We ask whether the new look in the back end improved coverage, or whether the pass rush and a Chuck Clark blitz call simply bailed out Kelvin Sheppard's unit when it counted. Kelvin isn't off the hook, but we'll tell you how much rope we think he has left.Then it's on to the Panthers on Sunday night. Bryce Young has 939 passing yards through three weeks, Tetairoa McMillan and Darren Waller are getting the targets, and Carolina's top corner Jaycee Horn looks to be out for a while. We break down what Detroit has to do to make Carolina earn its yards on the ground, how to handle the tight end matchups that burned them last week, and how aggressive Goff can be against a banged-up cornerback room.What would the secondary have to show you to make you believe in this team's ceiling?🦁Join The Grey Manes Community🦁✅ Official: https://www.thegreymanes.com/  ✅ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheGreyManes/  ✅ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GreyManes ✅ X/Twitter: https://x.com/TheGreyManes  ✅ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@LionsGreyManes   Lions Grey Manes is produced by Chris Stone at https://CastAhead.net
